Problem Note 16480: Formulas with incorrect syntax are validated and compiled incorrectly
If you are using SAS® Financial Management, and use a formula with
incorrect syntax due to a mismatched brace, [], or parentheses, ( ), the
formula will be validated, and text after the last brace or parenthesis
will be ignored. This will result in a different formula than intended,
which will produce unintended results.
